Hello all,<P>My question concerns 10BaseT network cables. I have seen the cat 5 cables pretty much standard in all networks. These of course have the RJ45 connectors with all 8 pins being filled with ...

Back in 1881 when Alexander Graham Bell invented twisted pair cables he could never have imagined they would still be in use today and that we owe so much of our high speed IT cables to his invention.

We all take Ethernet and its ubiquitous RJ-45 connector for granted these days. But Ethernet didn’t start with twisted pair cable. [Mark] and [Ben] at The Serial Port YouTube channel are taking a deep ...

Although the process of terminating twisted-pair copper cabling may seem to be relatively simple on the surface, the issues involved with properly creating robust connections for today's high ...

Why should twisted-pair cabling, used in large quantities to carry 4-kHz voice signals in the phone system, suddenly work well at 100 MHz and beyond? The simple answer is that it doesn’t. All ...

A thin-diameter wire (22 to 26 gauge) commonly used for telephone and network cabling. The wires are twisted around each other to minimize interference from other twisted pairs in the cable. Alexander ...

The new Trend Multipro Copper tester verifies that the twisted pair cables to the office or home have the required bandwidth of up to 30 MHz to carry the new high speed data services such as VDSL. The ...

Every day thousands of smart devices use Ethernet cables to join the Internet of Things (IoT). Understandably, most of this connectivity happens in benign indoor locations where temperature and ...

The transmission medium is the physical vehicle that facilitates the transport of information. Guided transmission media use a solid medium (cable) for transmission. There are many cables, but the ...

Britain's copper cables won't be able to support demand for faster and faster broadband in future, a new study warns. In experiments, researchers have found that the UK's existing copper network ...
